Working life based education

Oulu UAS educates professionals for Northern Finland, whose competence corresponds to the needs and development of the working life in the region. We develop our teaching in close co-operation with working life, industry and commerce. This is how we promote competitiveness as well as the competence, employment and well-being of the people in the region.

We provide degree programme studies, professional specialisation studies, pedagogic studies at the School of Vocational Teacher Education, open university studies as well as further training. Our common focus areas are sustainable development, internationality, entrepreneurship as well as innovation and development. Diversified co-operation with the fields of study as well as strong collaboration with our interest groups are important areas in our operations.

The degree programmes give you the skills and knowledge you need to work as a professional expert, to follow and promote the latest development trends of your area of expertise and to set up up for life-long learning.
